Polygon Block Performance
What was the maximum and minimum recorded time between two blocks? How many transactions are done in a block on average? How do these numbers compare to L1 such as Flow or Solana, or other L2 such as Arbitrum or Optimism?
Introduction
In this analysis, we will take a look at the blocks
I present tables in three networks separately and check the tables in each section
So that we can get interesting results from the analysis
In this analysis, the following three networks are compared with each other
- Polygon
- sonala
- optimism
Optimism has the lowest average transaction per block After that Polygon and in the best or in other words the highest number of transactions in one block is Solana The amount of 71 transactions in each block seems to be a reasonable and appropriate number for Polygon
The important point in this part is to know that the minimum time of zero does not mean that the time of the two-network mine is really zero, but these times are calculated in seconds, and the fact that it is zero means that the time of producing two blocks was less than one second. ! This time for Polygon is two seconds, which is more than the other two networks Another noteworthy point is the high maximum time of the Solana network 16 thousand seconds will mean about 4 hours, but why did this happen? ==Probably, the entire Solana network has been down during this time and has not been able to produce a block== That is why this gap or cap has occurred between the production of blocks This time for Polygon network is only 25 seconds!!
Counting the number of blocks also strongly depends on the age of the flipside data Solana has older data, so more blocks are stored in the tables, but Optimism and Polygon have relatively newer data. But in the case of the average time of producing a block, the effect of data aging will be lost As it is known, Solana mines each block on average in 0.6 seconds, which means the speed of this network. In this analysis, I talked about the high speed of Solana network and here you can see one of the effects of this speed Polygon has allocated the most mineblock time
